(The full-time intervention position created for math this school year ensures that students have additional time tobuild adequate foundations and learn basic skills they need to access the curriculum.) This position fills gaps, frontloads, and reinforces content concepts for core math teachers.

Staff• 100% of Certified River Oaks staff is highly qualified.• The majority of our staff hold advanced degrees. • We have a teacher and counselor that are NBCT. • 85% of our staff have at least 4 years of experience.Students

During the 2015-2016 school year- students attended school more than 90% of the time.

2016-2017 School Year

Teacher Retention • The integration of new staff members that will be hired to replace retirees, spousal transfers, and one with anopportunity to teach at a school on the Outer Banks!Student Attendance• Short duration suspensions that separate students from the learning environment• District mandated long-term suspensions • Slightly below the district goal for average school attendance.

2014-2015 School Year

Teacher retention - 18% Teacher Turnover

This depicts a total of five staff members of which three moved to Central Office positions and/or school administrator,one-moved out of state, and one returned to home county.

2013-2014 School Year

According to the data from surveys, parents are supportive and a part of decision making at River Oaks. We haveseen a rise in participation due to Title I requirements.According to the data, most parents support the teachers and contribute to their child's success.

Intake data indicates that most schools understand the profile of student for River Oaks and have a high acceptancerate. ....add overall %

High fidelity to PBIS program.

Small groups with direct instruction in reading comprehension/fluency/ vocabulary or in basic math skills.

Alternative Education Promoting the idea or continued education within alternative programs.

2015-2016Mary Philips High School: Six students decided to attend.Vernon Malone: Six students were accepted.

2014-2015 Mary Philips: Four students decided to attend.Vernon Malone: One student was accepted.

Staff• Collaborating with referring schools on profile and application process for regular program and Boosters to boostattendance for the regular program and to increase the applicant pool for the Boosters.• Some students do not appear to thrive or demonstrate growth as a result of being in a small environment.• Students who have done well in 3rd and 4th grade and then decline seem to benefit the most from the program asmeasured by standardized test scores.• Overage students who are not eligible or not accepted into the Booster Program might also benefit from a programthat offers them an opportunity to be promoted midyear or to transfer to the alternative high school at midyear.Student• River Oaks Middle is for "bad" kids instead of Academic Recovery.• They are not always excited about PBIS field trips.• Getting good grades is too easy.• More work was required of them at their base schools.• Guessing and/or doing poorly on assessments is of little concern. Alternative EducationWe feel that for most or our students that a decision to remain in alternative education during their high school yearswould provide them with the best opportunity to graduate. Unfortunately, there is a persistent stigma attached toattending a nontraditional school.

Priority Concerns/Problem Statement Root Causes/Hypothesis (ICEL) Solutions (evidence based)According to the data, some River Oak's studentshave shown growth in reading and math, butmeasurable growth is desired for all students.

Are as follows:1. Inconsistencies in classroom structures.2. Teaching methodologies that arepotentially misaligned to our studentpopulation.3. Lack of Motivation4. Insufficient rigor needed to stimulateachievement.5. Inadequate relationship building.6. Inconsistent student engagement.

- Utilize our intervention team to createIndividualized learning plans for students based onneeds in reading and/or math. Progress monitoringto determine proficiency.- Direct reading instruction- PBIS Point Sheets - Implementation of instruction geared towards alllevels (Differentiation)- Path Driver- Academy of Reading- Success Maker- Providing Staff Development that addresses HighYield Literacy Strategies across all content areas,classroom management, Differentiating Instruction,Project Based Learning, Implementing the 4 C's,Building Relationships with Students.

Parent Involvement is an ongoing area of concern.According to past TWC Survey, River Oaksconsistently scores at or below 50% in parentinvolvement and parent communication.

- Proximity of parents to school- School Schedule- Lack of PTA

- PBIS Point Sheets sent home to parents weekly(6th and 7th Grades)- Regular Phone Message to parents withacademic/behavior/social updates- Report Card Pick Up- Parent Surveys- Weekly Team Newsletters- Home Base- Websites (teacher and school)- Training through our Parents Are Connected (PAC)meetings and parent conferences at least once eachsemester

Data SummaryDescribe your conclusionsA comprehensive look at our data indicates that our strengths include strong attendance, and some growth in reading and math, a robust PBIS programthat supports learning, and a conscientious effort to place students in high schools that will best meet their needs.

The data indicate that our priority concern is continued growth in Reading & Math.

To address these concerns, we plan to focus on staff development to address the following:• literacy strategies with an emphasis on vocabulary building• differentiation strategies • literacy support in all content areas, • individualized small group Reading remediation, • individualized small group Math remediation • use of SuccessMaker • classroom management • Building relationships with studentsThe data indicates that we are having more success in getting students to apply to nontraditional schools to continue their education.
